OXFORD, n. c., May 7, 1887.
The Granville Grays, Company f,
Third regiment North Carolina State
Guard, have just gotten beautiful new
uniforms of gray, which they claim is
the pretticst uniform in the State. Last
night was the first time that the COM
ranv appeared in its new fall dress. In
honor of the company orr popular
townsman, Major Roger @. Gregory,
gave most elaborate banquet to them
at his residence, on College street.
LieutenantA. W. Allen. in behalf of Ma
jor Gregory. received the company with
very beautiful and appropriate adj
dress of welcome. The company then
stacked arms and the whole house was
thrown open TO receive them, and the
tall and stately form of the host stood
in the door to extend to all hearty
hand of welcome. The banquet was
both elegant and bountful. The wine
lowed freely, and peace and plenty in
the grim garb Of war reigned supreme.
The genuine old-time hospitality of
the host and hostess added peculiar
pleasure to the evening. When the
company was drawn up to leave Lieu
tenant 4. w. Allen made speech of
thanks and proposed that the two
daughters of the host be elected
daughters of the regiment, and Misses
Mary Belle and Mamie Easton Gregory
were chosen with great enthusiasm.
This company is one of the most
Aourishing in the State, being large
and well drilled, and Oxford should feel
Justly proud of it. De V.
